Reed Reappointed To Carl Albert State College Board

Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin reappointed Carl Albert State College Regent Deanna Reed to another seven-year term on the board, CASC officials announced.

Reed currently serves as the school’s Board of Regents chairwoman. She has served on the board since 1999.

“Regent Reed has been a driving force in moving the college forward, and we are honored that she will be serving us for another seven years. In addition to her service to the board, Regent Reed and her family are some of the college’s greatest benefactors and supporters. Last year, we opened the state-of-the-art Deanna Reed Science and Math Center at our Poteau campus,” interim President Garry Ivey said.

Reed and her husband, Bob Reed, are longtime contributors to the Adopt-a-Scholar Program and other scholarships. She co-chairs the annual Holiday Gold Dust Gala, which raises moneys for the CASC Foundation, and is a key supporter of the Miss CASC Pageant. She serves on the LeFlore County Literacy Council and was the first chairwoman of the Red Cross’ Southeastern Chapter. She is a member of Poteau Classy Lions, the Choctaw Tribe and Poteau Chamber of Commerce.

She received the chamber’s 2007 Poteau Lifetime Achievement Award and was named 1995 Woman of the Year by the Business and Professional Women of Poteau.
